It is with words as with sunbeams - the more they are condensed, the deeper they burn.
From Robert Southey
Affliction is not sent in vain, young man, from that good God, who chastens whom he loves.
Never let a man imagine that he can pursue a good end by evil means, without sinning against his own soul. The evil effect on himself is certain.
Live as long as you may, the first twenty years are the longest half of your life.
They sin who tell us Love can die: with Life all other passions fly, all others are but vanity.
It has been more wittily than charitably said that hell is paved with good intentions; they have their place in heaven also.
